Description

The present invention relates to a vehicle use support system using a user portable terminal equipped with a vehicle use support application for supporting use of a vehicle.
Vehicles supported for use in the present invention include, in the classification of drive devices, engine vehicles equipped with engines, electric vehicles equipped with motors, and hybrid vehicles equipped with engines and motors. There may be vehicles, ordinary freight vehicles, light freight vehicles, small freight vehicles, rental vehicles, special vehicles, bus vehicles and the like.

Vehicles such as automobiles are becoming more intelligent.
For example, in a vehicle such as an automobile, a keyless system for a vehicle is being spread which can operate a door lock and a door unlock by a door opening / closing control device without inserting a key into a keyhole.
Such a vehicle keyless system requires the user to wear an electronic key capable of wireless communication to operate the door lock. Wireless transmission / reception is performed between the electronic key and the door opening / closing control device mounted on the vehicle, and when the codes of the both match, the door is locked / unlocked.
In this conventional keyless system, radio transmission / reception is performed only when a driver holding an electronic key approaches or moves away, and locking / unlocking of the door is automatically performed. In addition, there are also engines that can be started by simply pressing the engine switch while wearing the electronic key.

  One of the problems of the currently prevailing vehicle keyless system is the problem of having to wear an electronic key when driving a car. The driver often keeps the electronic key in a pocket or bag of clothes because it does not have to be inserted into the keyhole as in conventional physical keys. Then, the driver tends to forget that he has a portable device. In addition, it becomes difficult to notice loss or theft of a portable device. If you lose the electronic key, you will not be able to lock / unlock the door or start the engine, and if you lose the electronic key, you will be forced to cope with it, and it may also lead to the theft of the vehicle. .

  Therefore, a technique aimed at opening and closing a door using a user portable terminal such as a cellular phone or a smartphone is also being sought. However, unlike the communication standards (standards using LF wave and UHF wave, etc.) adopted for the electronic key of the keyless system for vehicles, the mobile communication terminals in widespread use are mounted on the vehicle as they are Since wireless communication can not be performed with a conventional door opening / closing control device, an on-vehicle device that can communicate according to a communication standard such as a smartphone is separately required.

In order to solve the problem of the communication standard, as shown in FIG. 20, the portable telephone 12 is provided with an ID code of the electronic key of the smart key system, and the vehicle 14 can communicate with the portable telephone 12 There is known a technology for mounting an on-vehicle wireless communication device 21 called “)”.
For example, if the smartphone is equipped with a near field communication (NFC) function, an NFC tag called a "smart tag" for performing communication by switching the mode of the smartphone has been commercialized. Prescribed data can be written to this NFC tag, and it is possible to interlock with the door open / close control device via the NFC tag simply by holding the smartphone over the NFC tag installed in the vehicle when getting on the vehicle is there.

JP 2001-241229 A

In addition to the automatic opening and closing of the door mentioned above, the intelligence is advanced in various scenes such as automatic engine start or automatic motor start, car navigation, and an automatic driving system.
However, while vehicles are becoming more intelligent, there are also problems to be solved.
A keyless system for vehicles using an electronic key is an electronic alternative to locking and turning operations by inserting a key into a conventional keyhole for opening and closing of a door and closing operation by a turning operation by an actuator, so to speak, so to speak. There is no more intelligence than that.
As the car evolves, keyless systems, engine auto start or motor auto start, navigation system installation, air conditioning control system automation, and auto travel system installation are progressing, but they should be separate and independent Many are expected to be integrated in the future.

As described above, both the door lock processing of the vehicle, the automatic traveling processing, and the ETC charging processing during traveling, interlocking with the car navigation system, interlocking with the artificial intelligence system equipped with the interactive recognition interface mounted on the vehicle It can be seen as part of computer processing, and vehicles are beginning to merge with computers.
Here, the problem is how to integrate the various functions of the vehicle as part of computer processing.

Next, security measures have become important as we integrate vehicle functions as part of computer processing.
For example, since the vehicle keyless system in the prior art can open and close the door as a legitimate user by owning the electronic key as in the conventional physical key, the electronic key may be lost or stolen. If the other person spans the other person, the other person can illegally steal the vehicle. This is a problem that occurs because the owner of the vehicle is not linked to the true personal information of the user.

As the integration with car computers progresses, it will be necessary to take measures for the security level required for general computers. In the case of a vehicle, depending on the security level, it is not sufficient to simply input ID information from an electronic key.
In conventional vehicles, once the ID information is input from the electronic key and the door is unlocked, the engine or motor can also be started by the electronic key. Therefore, when the electronic key is lost or stolen, the door can be unlocked. After that, you will be free to use the vehicle.
In other words, when accessing the vehicle, you may be required to enter information based on various security levels in order to confirm whether the person trying to open and close the door has a valid usage right, but once at the start of use If authentication of the door opening and closing authority succeeds, then it is premised that the user can use the vehicle as a correct user, and no further security setting is made.

FIG. 21 is a diagram for briefly explaining an operation of starting a general application, opening an application file, and then ending and closing.
As shown in FIG. 21A, when the user intends to use the application 10, the application 10 is activated if the icon of the application 10 is selected and activation is performed by an operation such as double click.
Each application file 20a, 20b, 20c etc. editable by the application 10 is also installed on the computer system, and each icon is displayed on the monitor of the computer system. If the user selects the icon of the application file 20 to be used and starts by double-clicking or the like, the application 10 starts up and the application file 20 is read and can be edited using the application 10 .

Here, in the case of the application file 20 for which security is set, as shown in the upper part of FIG. 21B, before starting to use the application 10 such as editing the application file 20, input of a password is required There is an operation. However, as shown in the lower part of FIG. 21B, when the desired editing of the application file 20 is completed, an operation such as “end” or “close” of the input screen of the application 10 displayed on the monitor is performed. The application 10 simply ends, and the application file 20 is simply closed as it is.
In other words, security management is performed using a password when starting to use the application file 20. However, once authentication of the usage authority succeeds, special security settings such as password input are performed when closing the application file 20 after editing is completed. Absent.
However, in the case of an application that handles the travel of a vehicle and an application file, there are cases where security settings such as approval, confirmation, and recording of contents accompanying usage are required even at the end of travel.

Therefore, in view of the above conventional problems, the present invention has an object to realize organically integrating various functions of a vehicle as computer processing through the concept of a vehicle use support application and a vehicle use support application file. Do.
In addition, when integrating the various functions of the vehicle as computer processing, security settings for operations on the vehicle use support system file are made, and security settings are also made for operations such as approval and confirmation of the contents accompanying the end of the application and application files. It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved vehicle use support system.

  In order to achieve the above object, a vehicle use support system of the present invention is a vehicle use support system using a vehicle use support application for supporting use of a vehicle, and individual use of the vehicle used in the vehicle use support application A support application file, an open password code for opening the vehicle use support application file by the vehicle use support application, and a normal termination and closing of the vehicle use support application file opened by the vehicle use support application An application for opening the vehicle utilization support application file in response to input of the vehicle utilization support application file in which the closed personal identification code is set, code input means, and the open personal identification code via the code input means Having a file unlocking function and an application file locking function that normally ends and closes the vehicle use support application file in the open state in response to the input of the closed password code via the code input means It is a vehicle use support system characterized by the above.

  With the above configuration, various functions of the vehicle can be organically integrated as computer processing through the concepts of a vehicle use support application and a vehicle use support application file, and the vehicle use support application as well as the opening of the vehicle use support application file Security for file operations can be ensured by setting the security code even for operations such as closing files.

Next, in the above configuration, the application for causing the vehicle use support application to execute various functions mounted on the vehicle according to data dynamically input to the vehicle use support application file or data recorded in advance. File data input / output function, Application file editing function that dynamically records various data generated while driving or parking in the vehicle usage support application file, and this travel or parking recorded in the vehicle usage support application file It is preferable to have a configuration provided with an application file storage function for recording the various data.
According to the above configuration, various functions of the vehicle can be controlled as computer processing in a form of being integrated organically through the concept of the vehicle use support application and the vehicle use support application file.

In the above configuration, upon receipt of the input of the closed personal identification code, the application file locking function approves and confirms the recording of the various data according to the current travel or parking recorded in the vehicle use support application file. Then, through the application file storage function, record normally, and close.
By approving, confirming, and keeping records of various data related to travel or parking this time, various functions of the vehicle are integrated as a result of computer processing as data as a result of computer processing through the concept of vehicle use support application file can do. Later, as needed, by using the data records related to travel or parking, it is possible to manage travel management, charge processing management, and learn travel content, and use it in another traffic system, It is also possible to work in conjunction with vehicle insurance.

  In the above, various functions installed in the vehicle include door lock open / close function, engine or motor control function, car navigation system function, automatic driving system function, charge processing system function, voice response artificial intelligence system control function, lighting It includes an air conditioning system control function, an audio visual equipment control function, or a combination thereof.

Here, the installation of the vehicle use support system will be described.
The first pattern has a configuration in which a vehicle use support application and a vehicle use support application file are provided in the vehicle, and the code input means is provided in a part of the vehicle accessible to the outside. The code input means is not particularly limited. For example, the code input means may be provided on the side surface of the door or the fender.
In addition, as the device, if the open security code is a password, there may be a keyboard or a numeric keypad. When the open password code is biometric information, there may be a biometric information reading sensor (a fingerprint reader, a vein pattern reader, a camera for face authentication, an iris pattern reader, a voice input device, etc.).
In the case of this first pattern, when the user accesses the code input means from the outside by touch or the like, the vehicle use support application is automatically activated or the vehicle use support application in the sleep state is automatically performed. Thus, the vehicle use support application file is opened and the control of various functions of the vehicle can be started by the user inputting the open password code.
In the case of biometric information, the input means is not limited. For example, as a device for a fingerprint pattern, as input data, image data of a fingerprint pattern of a corresponding finger input using a fingerprint reading unit and a fingerprint reading unit There is a device that includes scan direction data indicating the scan direction of the finger. If there is scan direction data indicating the scan direction of the finger, multiple PIN codes can be input by changing the scan direction using the same finger (for example, the thumb of the right hand), and for the fingerprint reader It is possible to use open password code when pressing from the joint and scan to the fingertip, and to use closed password code when pressing from the finger against the fingerprint reader and scanning toward the finger joint as it is. Become. The scan can be considered not only in the vertical direction of the finger but also in the horizontal direction, the diagonal direction, etc., and the number of code information that can be input with one finger increases accordingly.

The second pattern is that the vehicle use support application and the vehicle use support application file are provided in the vehicle, and the code input means is provided inside the vehicle, and the user holds the door lock function of the vehicle. The electronic key is operated. For example, there is a configuration in which the code input means is provided in a part of a case or monitor of a car navigation system.
In the case of this second pattern, the door is opened and closed by the electronic key, the user who opens the door and gets in the vehicle accesses the code input means in the vehicle, and the vehicle use support application is automatically performed. The vehicle use support application in the start or sleep state is automatically restarted, and the user enters the open password code to open the vehicle use support application file, and the door lock function of the vehicle is opened. Operation can be started to start control of other functions.

In the third pattern, a vehicle use support application, a vehicle use support application file, and a code input means are provided on a portable terminal held by the user, and an on-vehicle device mounted on the vehicle for receiving a signal transmitted from the portable terminal It is a structure. The code input means uses, for example, a smartphone device. The vehicle-mounted device is equipped with a communication function conforming to the communication standard of the portable terminal, and data exchange with the portable terminal is possible.
In the case of this third pattern, when the user accesses the code input means of the portable terminal, an activation signal is sent from the portable terminal to the on-vehicle device, and the vehicle use support application is automatically activated. Alternatively, the vehicle use support application in the sleep state is automatically restarted, and the user can further transmit the open security code from the portable terminal to the in-vehicle device by inputting the open security code from the code input means. As the vehicle use support application file is opened, control to various functions of the vehicle can be started.

Next, we will start using the vehicle, that is, from where the user accesses the vehicle.
In the case of the first pattern and the third pattern, when the user accesses the code input means and inputs the open identification code, the vehicle use support application and the vehicle use support application file are opened, The vehicle use support application file describes an operation for unlocking the door lock of the vehicle to the door lock open / close function, and the door lock is released.
In the case of the second pattern, the door lock is first released using the electronic key and the vehicle is installed in the vehicle, and access is made to the code input means provided on the monitor of the car navigation system or a part of the case. Enter the code

Next, assuming that the operation of starting the engine or starting the motor to the engine or motor control function is described in the vehicle utilization support application file, the vehicle utilization support application corresponds to the vehicle for the engine or motor control function. The instruction to start the engine or start the motor can be given.
Furthermore, for example, in a vehicle use support application file, a car navigation system function, an automatic driving system function, a charge processing system function, a voice response artificial intelligence system control function, a lighting / air conditioning system control function, and an audio visual device control function are appropriately described. If so, those functions become active one after another and the necessary functions are provided.

For example, for the automatic driving system function, the vehicle use support application automatically selects from the automatic travel instruction data input to the vehicle use support application file by the application file editing function or the automatic travel instruction data input in the past Application file data transfer function to give travel instruction data, data necessary for automatic driving, for example, various data such as destination, travel route to select, desired arrival time, stop on the way, availability of toll roads, etc. , Can be provided in the form of file data transfer from the vehicle use support application file.
Finally, in response to the input of the closed password code, it is preferable that the application file locking function determines and records automatic travel instruction data for the current automatic travel in the vehicle utilization support application file, and ends normally and closes.

The external system with which the charge processing system function is linked includes any of a toll road toll collection system, a parking lot toll collection system, a rental car toll collection system, a car sharing toll collection system, or a combination thereof.
Finally, in response to the input of the closed personal identification code, the application file locking function may approve and confirm the recording of the charging data for the current automatic travel in the vehicle use support application file, and normally end and close. preferable.

Next, an operation in the case where the vehicle is temporarily parked at the moving destination instead of completely ending the driving of the vehicle will be described.
It is often necessary to park temporarily while driving. In recent years, vehicles with a so-called automatic idling stop mechanism that stops the engine or motor even if the time is as short as a signal stop is widespread, but only the engine or motor stops, and the entire function of the vehicle stops It is not a thing. By releasing the brake pedal or depressing the accelerator pedal, the engine restarts, while other control systems are in operation. Here, “temporarily park” is temporary parking when the user temporarily leaves the vehicle by stopping in the parking lot or stopping at the shoulder of the road. In this way, the situation of leaving the vehicle temporarily has various purposes such as rest, food, shopping, and meetings, and the time is also diverse.

Therefore, in the vehicle use support system of the present invention, in addition to the open password code and the closed password code in the vehicle use support application file, a sleep password code for temporarily putting the vehicle use support application file in the open state into sleep mode; A restart password code for resuming the vehicle use support application file in the temporary sleep state is set, and the vehicle use support application is performed by the user inputting the sleep password code via the code input means in the vehicle use support application. Automatically puts the vehicle use support application file and itself into a temporary sleep state, and also allows the user to access the code input means to use the vehicle use support application in the sleep state Automatically restarted, further by the user to the Resume PIN code, can be that the vehicle utilization support application files comprising the application files sleep Resumability resumed.
According to the above configuration, the vehicle use support application controls the various functions of the vehicle based on the data described in the vehicle use support application file even if the vehicle is temporarily stopped and the vehicle function is also temporarily stopped and the vehicle is left for a while The journey is not lost and can be resumed seamlessly.

Next, a device for preventing unauthorized access to vehicles will be described. Here, means for using a portable terminal held by the user will be described.
In the vehicle use support system of the present invention, the portable terminal held by the user includes the remote control application for the vehicle use support application, and the vehicle use support application is in the sleep state by the access to the code input means. If it restarts automatically or if the door open / close control device is activated, whether the remote control application may execute other functions including the engine or motor control function Vehicle that locks execution of various functions including the engine or motor control function until it receives request information transmission function that sends request information that requests transmission of the approval information from the remote control application and the approval information sent from the remote control application Various function lock function, remote This product is equipped with a vehicle function unlock function that unlocks the execution of the engine or other functions including the motor control function when it receives approval information sent from the production application, and allows the user to use the vehicle via the remote control application. It is possible to set and cancel the request information transmission function of the application.
In this way, it is possible to construct a mechanism in which the notification is sent to the user's portable terminal when there is access to the vehicle, and if there is an access notification that the user does not know, approve the activation of various functions of the vehicle as unauthorized access. It can be prevented without.
Here, the user portable terminal may be a portable cellular phone, a smart phone, a tablet computer, a personal computer, a smart watch, and other computer resources portable by the user.

Next, a device for sharing vehicles with family members and acquaintances, using car sharing, and renting a car, etc., when using vehicles independently of each other by a plurality of people, will be described.
In the vehicle use support system of the present invention, each of the vehicle use support application files used in the vehicle use support application is organized in an individual folder in an individual unit for each user, and is used in each of the vehicle use support applications. A personal folder open personal identification code for opening the personal folder by the vehicle use support application and a personal folder close personal identification code for closing the personal folder opened by the vehicle use support system are set in the personal folder.
According to the above configuration, the vehicle use support application file is organized into personal folders for individual users by user, so it becomes possible to organize, manage, and control the use situation of vehicles individually for each user. .

Next, as an open security code and a closed security code which can be used in the vehicle use support system of the present invention, for example, a security code consisting of numerals, a security code including an alphabet, and a living body of an individual who is the owner of personal data. There may also be information. Various types of biological information are assumed, and there are biological information such as fingerprint patterns, vein patterns, iris patterns and voiceprint patterns.
Next, although there is no limitation as a vehicle that can be controlled in the vehicle use support system of the present invention, in the classification of drive devices, there are engine vehicles equipped with engines, electric vehicles equipped with motors, and hybrid vehicles equipped with engines and motors. Vehicle classification includes ordinary vehicles, light vehicles, ordinary cargo vehicles, light cargo vehicles, small cargo vehicles, rental vehicles, special vehicles, bus vehicles, and the like.

  Next, as a variation, instead of the open password code and the closed password code set in the vehicle use support application file, an open password code for opening the vehicle use support application is opened with respect to the vehicle use support application. It is also possible to set a closed password code for normal termination and closing of the vehicle use support application. In this case, the vehicle use support application receives the input of the open password code through the code input means and receives the application unlocking function for opening the vehicle use support application and the input of the closed password code through the code input means It is also possible to have a configuration provided with an application locking function that normally ends and closes the vehicle use support application in the open state.

A section of fingerprint data which has been read out and read in sampling order is obtained. Although both are fingerprint image data of the same thumb when assembling a section as an image, here, together with fingerprint data of the assembled thumb, data as to whether the sampling order is from the joint side or from the fingertip side is held together For example, the same thumb can be used to input two distinguishable security codes. Here, an example in which data obtained by scanning the thumb with the pattern in FIG. 4A is used as an open password code, and data obtained by scanning the thumb with the pattern in FIG. 4D is used as the closed password code It is.
Next, in this example, a sleep password code and a resume password code, which will be described later, are both used as biometric information of the fingerprint of the index finger. As in the case of the open password code and the closed password code, the device is designed to distinguish between the two according to the scan direction. For example, as shown in FIG. 4B, the forefinger is pressed from the fingertip side against the reading port of the fingerprint reader that is the code input means 110, and the forefinger is slid toward the joint side as it is (the forefinger in the figure is right The sleep PIN code is input by scanning. Conversely, as shown in FIG. 4C, the joint side of the forefinger is pressed against the reading port of the fingerprint reader which is the code input means 110, and the forefinger is slid toward the fingertip as it is (the forefinger in the figure is left Slide) It is assumed that the restart PIN code is input by scanning.
A section of fingerprint data cut out in the sampling order from the fingerprint data on the fingertip side of the index finger to the fingerprint data on the joint side as the sleep password code is obtained by the code input means 110, and similarly, the joint side of the index finger as the resume password code. Sections of fingerprint data are obtained in the order of sampling from the point to the fingertip side. In both cases, when the section obtained is assembled as an image, the fingerprint image of the same index finger is obtained, but here, together with the fingerprint data of the assembled index finger, data indicating whether the sampling order is from the joint side or the fingertip side is also included. If held, it is possible to input two distinguishable PIN codes using the same index finger. Here, an example in which data obtained by scanning the forefinger with the pattern in FIG. 4B is used as the sleep PIN code, and data obtained by scanning the forefinger with the pattern in FIG. 4C is used as the resume PIN code It is.
